A Distant Thunder - Little Feat

Give my best to thosei I care for

With firends a simple nod will do

I bow to those who’ve come and gone before me

A handshake to the past

It gets me through

Been a little bit good and a little bit sad

Let the dirt and dust fall where it may

A distant thunder and it takes my breath away

Tumblin' in a whirlwind pullin' clouds from the sky

Pressure is a pyramid in a scream that no one hears

A thousand lifetimes couldn’t cover my tears

Oh cover my tears

Measured distance through the heartbeats

Measured time holds all my beliefs

These shotgun visions are all I’ve ever lived with

A scattered mind from a reckless youth

I cover my ears, I cover my eyes

Still all the fears, still heard the lies

A distant thunder and it takes my breath away

Tumblin' in a whirlwind pullin' clouds from the sky

Pressure is a pyramid in a scream that no one hears

A thousand lifetimes couldn’t cover my tears

Oh cover my tears

Took convention for a rough ride

A genius under glass set adrift

Direction all but fading

Like a kiss that leaves you floating in a trance

The rivers I cross the memories I keep

A minute to smile, forever to weep

A distant thunder and it takes my breath away

Tumblin' in a whirlwind pullin' clouds from the sky

Pressure is a pyramid in a scream that no one hears

A thousand lifetimes couldn’t cover my tears

Oh cover my tears

A distand thunder, I feel like I’m slippin' under

Tumblin' in a whirlwind pullin' clouds from the sky

Of all those times that I’ve turned and looked away

A thousand lifetimes couldn’t cover my tears

Oh cover my tears
